NEW YORK (PIX11) -- A person was struck by a train in Upper Manhattan on Friday afternoon, according to the MTA.
Emergence teams responded to reports of a person struck by a train a few minutes before 4 p.m., officials said.
MTA officials said No. 1 trains will not run in either direction between 137 Street—City College and 168 Street Washington Heights until at least 5 p.m.
Parts of the No. 1 train run in two sections: South Ferry to 137 Street and City College and then in another section between 168 Street Washington Hieths to Van Cortlandt Park-242 Street.
MTA officials have suggested the following alternate route for service:
- Consider nearby A trains for service between 207 Street and 59 Street in both directions.
- For service between 96 Street and Chambers Street, take No. 3 trains.
- For service between 242 Street and 225 Street, consider the Bx9 bus.
- For service between 231 Street and 207 Street, consider the Bx7 bus.
